Funniest Beards from 2017 World Beard and Mustache Championship

Featured below are the funniest and most unusual entries from the semi-annual competition that has turned growing and grooming into a high-class art form, and the 2017 edition just wrapped up in Austin, Texas. Photos by Greg Anderson.

I take exception. I am a bearded man and keeps my beard clean. There is no food, old or fresh, or snot. I am a non-smoker, nor do I chew tobacco so no spit or smoke. There is on a regular basis the delicate odor of a woman’s personal fragrances (if you know what I mean) that lasts until the morning after. Disgusting is the superior attitude of men who can not grow a beard and complain about those who do. Now, if you should happen to be a woman, and your experiences lead you to believe all beards are as you described, you’ve been running with the wrong men.

Arrrrr…right. Oh, well, how about: “All bearded men are gay!”? Nothing wrong being gay, but would that be confrontal enough? Or, as controversially put: “All bearded men a straight!”? That probably offends some “bears”!
